Chapter 317: Escape from the Ancient Tree

I saw that the tree trunks were twitching wildly, as if they had been stimulated by something.

And the vines on the old tree kept stretching here and there, as if looking for something.

Gu Han knew that the vines of these ancient trees had extremely strong vitality, so they must be looking for themselves and looking for their roots.

Bai Yanxi, who was standing in the distance, was shocked to see it, because these vines were not only three or two like before, but hundreds or thousands, if everything attacked them.

That's definitely going to be hard to deal with.

Not to mention a battle-hardened person like himself, even if it is a mercenary king like Gu Han, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with.

Bai Yanxi shouted at Gu Han: "Gu Han, you come this way, stay away from them, be careful of hurting you." ”

When Gu Han heard Bai Yanxi's words, he moved towards Bai Yanxi's side.

The place where Bai Yanxi stood was about 100 meters away from the ancient tree, which was the safe distance estimated by Gu Han.

However, as soon as Gu Han walked around, the vines of those ancient trees seemed to be conscious, originally like a group of demons dancing wildly, but now they suddenly found their direction.

All of them rushed in Gu Han's direction.

Bai Yanxi had no choice but to raise his voice and shout: "Gu Han, be careful behind." ”

Of course, Gu Han noticed the unusual movement behind him, he knew that this thing was not easy to deal with, where was the problem that could be solved by two packets of salt.

In this very critical situation, Gu Han didn't even have time to look behind him.

The speed of these vines is much faster than before.

These are stress responses to stimulation.

Thinking of this, Gu Han could only speed up the pace under his feet and quickly move towards Bai Yanxi.

Soon, he came to Bai Yanxi's side.

Bai Yanxi saw that Gu Han was safe and sound, and the big stone in his heart fell to the ground.

"It's okay if you're okay, those vines didn't catch up, did they?"

"It's true that we haven't caught up now, but it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, so we'd better retreat as soon as possible. This ancient tree is so old that we don't know how much of its buried roots have spread. Gu Han said.

Bai Yanxi nodded, "That's true, if we don't evacuate, I don't know what else awaits us behind." ”

"Yes, this tree has been growing for hundreds of years, and its root system must have stretched for dozens of miles to grow for such a long time. Gu Han said.

After hearing Gu Han say this, Bai Yanxi's face turned a little pale with fright.

Because if they say this, no matter how far they run, they won't be able to run.

Maybe this ancient tree didn't live for more than 100 years, so it had more roots underground. Maybe it's all in the valley.

But it's also the worst-case scenario.

However, they have been standing in this place for so long, and those roots have not yet come to this place, which means that it does not have so many roots spreading underground.

This is a good sign that they are at least safe standing in this place.

"Gu Han, those vines haven't caught up so far, does it mean that we are safe for the time being?"

"It's understandable, but it also shows that the salt is useful, but we don't have much on it. Now I still use two packs, and I don't know what to do next. Gu Han said very calmly.

"Since we don't have much salt left, I have thought of a way to pass through this place for the time being. Bai Yanxi said with a flash of inspiration.

Gu Han looked at her very happily and asked, "What's the solution, hurry up and say it, we have to hurry." ”

"Although we don't have a lot of salt right now, it's more than enough for the two of us. ”

"You mean, I see, as soon as the two of us put salt water on our bodies and pass by that place, those vines will be afraid of us. Gu Han said.

"That's right, that's it. ”

As soon as they said they would do it, the two of them found a small stream and wet all the clothes on their bodies, and then glued them all with salt water.

When the two of them were covered in salt water, they continued on their way.

Sure enough, when the vines saw them, they tried to stretch out their branches and tie them up, but as soon as they touched their bodies, they made a sizzling sound.

As a result, these vines only dared to look at them from a distance, and did not dare to approach the two of them at all.

"I didn't expect this method to be really useful, it seems that this time Link is going to make a big contribution. Gu Han said with a smile.

Bai Yanxi nodded and said, "That's right, it seems that sometimes what is written in the book is still true, I also said before that he reads some books every day." I didn't expect these books to be really useful now. ”

"So, if you don't have common sense, you should read more. ”

"Why, are you talking about me? I'm a person with no common sense, but I don't like to read. Besides, isn't it enough to have Link alone for such a thing as reading? Anyway, as long as you bring him, it is equivalent to bringing a library. Why not. Bai Yanxi blinked and said, she obviously disagreed with what Gu Han said.

Gu Han hooked the corners of his mouth and touched his nose, "According to what you say, of course it's okay, if you want to not read, it's okay, even if we go anywhere in the future, we have to take Link with us." ”

"Of course, why else would he do it. Bai Yanxi said very arrogantly.

The two walked for a while, and they didn't know where they came to.

But the GPS showed that they had been moving forward, that is, there were no turns.

However, they finally walked through the tracking range of the ancient tree, and now they were able to wash all the salt water on their bodies.

If you don't wash it, I'm afraid that your body will become dehydrated.

Fortunately, there is a small stream not far away.

This creek is probably of the same origin as the previous one, and the water is all the same clear, and you can't see anything underneath.

The two of them walked to the creek and began to wash the salt water from themselves.

While he was washing, Bai Yanxi let out a scream, and then took a few steps back.

Hearing this, Gu Han quickly flashed to Bai Yanxi's side.

I was a little nervous and asked, "What happened, what did you see, and why were you so alarmed?"

"It's nothing, I just saw something underwater, but when I stood up and looked closely, I saw that it was just a pile of dead leaves, nothing, but it really scared me just now. Bai Yanxi's eyes looked at the bottom of the stream and said.
